Now the bible tells the story about Adam's rib.How the Lord made a woman for companionship. And the first thing she did , Was take a bite of that forbidden fruit. Well, I guess we'll be paying till the end of time, At least that's how it is with that woman of mine. Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back.

Now this is wrong and, baby, that ain't right.And I'm huggin' tryin' to please that woman day and night.She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can.Somethin's got a change honey, I'm gonna leave.I won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me,Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back.

There's been a hole in wallet and a pain in my side,Ever since I made that girl my blushing bride.Her daddy calls her angel,And her momma calls her three times a night.Her cousins on the sofa, her sister's got my car,Her brother's drink my liquor like my house was a bar,Oh Lord, well, I think I want my rib back.

Now this is wrong and, baby, that ain't right.And I'm huggin' tryin' to please that woman day and night.She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can.Somethin's got a change honey, I'm gonna leave.I won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me,Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back.
